Successful HIV testing day at JAWB

Take the test take control on June 29 was a huge success, with more than a dozen providers/community partners set up in the Atrium handing out educational materials, safe sex kits, and the like. Councilmembers Catania (At-large), Bowser (Ward 4), and Michael Brown (At-large) along with Council Chair Gray (At-large) each addressed the District’s recognition of National HIV Testing Day and the importance of testing. Two providers tested approximately 50 individuals. The tests were free and confidential. More on this event from CM Catania. If you do not receive the CM Catania newsletter, go here.
